PAYMENT
Payment is due at the time of your appointment. Cash, Check or Credit Card (MasterCard, Visa, Discover) are accepted.

CANCELLATION POLICY
If you must cancel or reschedule, a minimum 24-hour notice is requested. Your appointment time is reserved exclusively for you and it is usually not possible to fill a 2-hour time slot on short notice. For emergency situations, please notify me as soon as possible. Thank you for your courtesy and understanding.

INSURANCE
Insurance is not accepted and other third party claims are not filed. Most insurance companies consider hypnosis as alternative therapy and do not pay for it. However, upon request, a statement will be furnished for reimbursement under a Flexible Spending Account or employee benefit plan for Smoking Cessation, Weight Loss, etc.

CLIENT REFERRAL BONUS
Referrals from satisfied clients are greatly appreciated. Receive $10 credit toward a future hypnosis session or self-hypnosis CD for each new client referral.

CHILDREN & TEENS
Appointments for children under age 18 require written permission from parent or guardian. The parent is present during the introduction to hypnosis portion of the session. Older children and teens usually do best with the parent waiting in the reception area during the hypnosis session. I prefer to limit my practice to teens and adults. Younger children respond well to listening to hypnosis recordings at bedtime and I am happy to make custom CD's for that purpose.

MEDICAL REFERRALS

Complementary Therapies
More and more people are asking their physicians for information on various complementary therapies. A survey conducted by the American Medical Association found that 58% of the physicians were in favor of their patients using complementary therapies. As many as 66% of patients surveyed by the American Medical Association are using complementary therapies.The highest percentages of utilization are those with chronic illnesses for which traditional therapies offer little relief or hope-chronic pain, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, migraines, arthritis, psoriasis, OCD, etc. Some other chronic conditions are vastly improved with the help of hypnosis, such as diabetes. Hypnosis can assist in overcoming addictions, when used in conjunction with a substance abuse program, by providing motivation, reducing withdrawal symptoms, and increasing self-esteem.

Self or Physician Referrals
No referrals are required for non-medical conditions such as smoking, weight loss, stress, confidence, etc. Clients may self-refer for medical or mental health conditions, but I require a signed, written release from your licensed medical or mental health professional. This will allow me to help you to increase your own natural resources through visualization and progressive relaxation.

I do not attempt to treat or diagnose disease or mental disorders of any kind. Hypnosis in no way replaces standard medical procedures, but works in conjunction with them by freeing the patient of feelings and attitudes that may be inhibiting his or her response to them. Through hypnosis, one uses the natural facilities of the mind to create a positive attitude and boost the immune system, allowing the client to make the most of the medical help available. Hypnosis helps to create strong positive expectancy and reduce stress, thereby normalizing the action of the autonomic nervous system.
